Take either SR-525 or CR-525 to where they intersect. East from that intersection is Palm Parkway. It later becomes Turkey Lake Road, which passes directly to the west of Universal.

Is that good enough, or do I need to tell you the URL for <http://mapquest.com>?

well... I have a type of OCD that has come from being trained in Security, Fire and EMS that makes out of place things pop out. If you have ever seen the USA tv show Psych... then you should know what it looks like to me.... with out the annoiying white light outline that Shawn gets when something pops out to him.

For instance I was riding the Express back to the TTC as we come atop of the high beam area near the Grand Flo, I look down and i notice some bad show sitting their.. about 75 or 100 yards away from the grand on the service road is a spool that stands about 8 to 10 feet when standing on its rails, commonly used by Power Companies to string the high tension poles.

On the trip from TTC to Contemporary their is a white hard hat some where near the pylons #10 or 12.

On the EPCOT trip their is three old pallets on the ground that are stacked near Bambi Lake at rectifier #3, from the SR 536 bridge to the EPCOT parking road.. their is a couple of buckets in the woods...

To put it in short... I try not to stair out the window unless i have too.....

I know how that works. After spending four years in Show Quality, I can't walk through a room or business without coming out knowing exactly how many lamps are out.

I can tell you exactly how many lamps are out in my shops as of yesterday. Got a list of them in my wallet. Made it Monday so I could call maintenance about them but didn't get a chance to so I put the list in my wallet to keep it safe until I go back to work on Thursday.

Way to many bulbs are out, it seems I'm the only person who calls them in. Not all of them are discrete bulbs either, a few are very noticeable. At least it doesn't usually take lighting to long to get out to replace the lights once they are called. Usually no more than a few hours and a few times even quicker than that.

I tend to notice things like out lamps and other things that most people would never notice. Zazu, Dr. McKey, and I would make one killer of a show quality team.

I used to be good with seeing flaws in Disneyland but from the point of it being unsafe like the rusting stairway at Innoventions that leads up to the Skyway building or the holes cut into the netting that separated the Jungle Cruise line from the shop. I am why there are now metal bars there. I told them how easy it was to stick one's hand through the knifed out sections and take small things. they would not want me on Show Quality as I would drive them up the wall with so many things that need fixing.
